I have some recurring but intermittent problems with my system.
Firstly, and most regularly of the problems is my boiler does not stay on and shuts off. I have the controller set by timer and the thermostat but I constantly have to go and click the reset button.
Secondly and most worryingly...
My boiler still works (heating and hot water), but has started making a "pshhh" noise (like pressure is being released ?).
When the boiler starts from cold, it makes this noise every 20 - 40 secs (the noise lasts about 1 second each time), but once it's been running for a while, the noise stops...
hi guys just had a friend get in touch he has a potterton suprima atleast 15 years old probably more. He is having an intermittant fault with the pilot light extinguishing. After a bit research i have found this is most likely a pcb fault (common fault apparently). However he has reported that...
Went out to the above boiler earlier on, the LED was flashing Red incredibly fast (almost constant red light). I dropped the PCB down and written on the side was the instructions to reset such a fault claiming the PCB had gone to 'Infra-Red' mode and to hold down the reset button for 10 seconds...
Hi,

Hi all, I'm new to the gas game & the forum so go easy on me guys. Now it may sound a silly question but does anybody know which way round the fan outlet rubber seal goes into the flue outlet on the potterton suprima 50l. The rubber seal is conical in profile and logic would suggest it acts like...
Good morning all, my mates boiler a potterton suprima stoped working last night. It looks like its failing to fire up. Anyone could give me some advice on what to look for? Many thanks.
I replaced the pcb in my potterton suprima 40 boiler last year and it has been fine since. Over the last week it has started playing up again. I turn the hot water on, the boiler kicks in fine and goes through two cycles before it locks out with a solid red light. It does the same with the...

Recently moved into a house with a 12 year old potterton suprima 60 boiler. Over the last few weeks the boiler can take from 30 minutes up to 8 hours to fire up. The LED flashes orange and there are no other sounds coming from the boiler or pump. I'm got very little experience with boilers. The...
Everytime someone posts a potterton suprima fault it turns out to be the PCB and this one could be the same, but I'll ask anyway, particually as it had a new PCB a year ago
A colleague attended the call out 1st, it was an unvented system and he found it had lost pressure so he topped it up and...
Hi Guy,
I got call out last night to repair a Potterton Suprima 30 Boiler. Everything looked fine, the panel would start , the fan would bust into life and then it would stop and lock out!
No flame ignition no nothing, the process stops here. The only other thing the boiler was doing was...

I was wondering if any of you had this problem and could give me advice.
I had a call today from a costumer about POTTERTON Suprima 60-80. He has two boilers installed, one for DHW and one for CH.
The CH one has to be reset every 24h, otherwise it stops heating. Once it's reset, works fine for...
